The thing that surprised me about it initially is the regular commercial drones I've seen irl did have altitude readouts. The thing that makes altitude special, where a lot of those other factors are not, is the altitude is actually very easy to figure out on the cheap, and will be a big factor.
So if it's the easy and cheap to figure out, you can give it to people, and giving it to people is better than not giving it to people, because having it is better than not having it.
It's not like you have to calculate an exact "fall path" just to make small improvements to your accuracy, right?
